SCPI Commands – an Introduction

58

 

This chapter contains information on how to configure the three

 

remote interfaces that are provided on the back of the instrument. In

 

most cases you can connect your power supply to any one of these

 

interfaces and be up and running with a minimum amount of

 

configuration.

 

Detailed information on configuring the remote interfaces is included in the

NOTE

 

USB/LAN/GPIB Interfaces Connectivity Guide document located on the

 

Automation-Ready CD-ROM included with this product.

 

 

 

This chapter also contains a brief introduction to the SCPI

 

Programming language. SCPI (Standard Commands for

 

Programmable Instruments) is a programming language for

 

controlling instrument functions over the GPIB. SCPI is layered on

 

top of the hardware-portion of IEEE 488.2. The same SCPI commands

 

and parameters control the same functions in different classes of

 

instruments.
